Answer:

15.167%

Explanation:

For computing the WACC we need to do the following calculations which are shown below:

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta × Market risk premium  

= 3% + 2 × 9%

= 21%  

After tax cost of debt = Cost of debt ×  (1-Tax Rate)

= 5% × (1 - 0.30)

= 3.50%

Now

WACC = Weight of debt ×  Cost of debt + Weight of equity × Cost of equity

= 5 ÷ 15 × 3.50 + 10 ÷ 15 × 21

= 1.167% + 14%

= 15.167%

Lesechka [4]

The stock is now trading at $52.16 per share.

The current value of an annuity of n regular payments of P at r% with yearly payments is provided by:

PV = P × (1 -((1 + r) ^{-n}÷r))

Estes Park Corp. distributes a fixed rate of a dividend of P = $7.80 per share on its shares. The corporation will retain this dividend for the following n = 13 years before ceasing dividend payments permanently. If the necessary returns on this stock are not metis r = 11.2% = 0.112.

The actual share price is calculated as follows:

Current share price = $7.80 × (1 -((1 + 0.112) ^{-13}÷0.112))

$7.80 × ((1 - 0.251) ÷ 0.112)

$52.16

Therefore, the current share price is $52.16

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Step 1. Given information.

  • City of 200 people
  • 100 rich, 100 poor.

Step 2. Formulas needed to solve the exercise.

  • P(poor) = 0.9x^2
  • P(rich)= 35x-0.1x^2

Step 3. Calculation and step 4. Solution.

P(poor) = p (rich)

0.9x2 = 35x - 0.1x2

1x2 = 35x

x = 35

x is the percentage of rich above 50%, thus there are 35% rich people above 50%.

P (poor) = 1102.5

P (rich) = 1102.5

The equilibrium premium is $1,102.5
